This aerial photograph of Greenwood Cemetery was provided by the City of Barnesville. If approved, the Wadsworth Cemetery graves will be relocated to the area delineated in red at the top of the photo near the railroad tracks.

In preparation for the removal of what is thought to be some 103 graves from the historic Wadsworth Cemetery to make room for industrial expansion, the City of Barnesville has done extensive research and preparation.

Its application to exhume those buried there and relocate their remains to Greenwood Cemetery will be the subject of a public hearing June 20 at 7 p.m. at the courthouse.
